Being honest may not get you a lot of friends but it'll always get you the right ones.

In a world full of dishonesty, not only are those who are full of honesty rare, they are really jewels to today's society. Don't go out of your way to hide the truth, instead go out of your way to make the truth be known. Don't lie to yourself, be honest with yourself at all times, and know that doing so will lead to you making much more significant strides in your life than you would have if you decided to be dishonest.

Don't bother apologizing if you're just going to continue doing the things you said sorry for.

There is a huge difference between talking about change, and really becoming the change that you have been talking about. It is very important that when we make our convictions public, that we seek to really meet the goals that we once spoke as a dream. More often than not, the relationships you build and maintain with people over the years can easily diminish if you don't do the things that you say you are going to do.

Sometimes people put up walls not to keep others out but to see who cares enough to tear them down.

When someone puts up walls, and you feel as though you should still continue to pursue them there are a few things that you should be mindful of. First, they are putting up these walls for a reason, most likely because they have been hurt in the past, or because they never have let anybody ever overcome these walls. In order to be able to overcome this, one must be patient, kind, and truthful in everything that he or she does.

Good relationships don't just happen. They take time and patience and two people who truly want to be together.

When we enter into a relationship with someone we usually do so with the hope that we will be together forever, and we make an agreement with one another to be there for one another and to make each other better. We must always remember when entering a relationship that it is not about who you are apart, but instead it is about what you can become as a couple.
